New to the thread, but trying to branch out. We moved to the bay area 5 years ago, and are both caught up with work & don't invest the time to make friends. . . or harder, couples friends. We've had no one other than visiting family over to our house in five years, and we invited a group over for dinner on Saturday. It's the family of one of my son's friends, and they have been awesome & helpful with the kids.
We're making improvements on our house, so it's always in some form of disarray & makes me uncomfortable to host. But, if we wait for it to be perfect, we'll be waiting forever. :-)
